Objectives

By the end of this lab, you will: 1. Load and analyze the Lightcast dataset in Spark DataFrame. 2. Create five easy and three medium-complexity visualizations using Plotly. 3. Explore salary distributions, employment trends, and job postings. 4. Analyze skills in relation to NAICS/SOC/ONET codes and salaries. 5. Customize colors, fonts, and styles in all visualizations (default themes result in a 2.5-point deduction). 6. Follow best practices for reporting on data communication.

Step 1: Load the Dataset

import pandas as pd
import plotly.express as px
import plotly.io as pio
pio.renderers.default = "vscode"
from pyspark.sql import SparkSession
from pyspark.sql.functions import col


# Initialize Spark Session
spark = SparkSession.builder.appName("LightcastData").getOrCreate()

# Load Data
df = spark.read.option("header", "true").option("inferSchema", "true").option("multiLine","true").option("escape", "\"").csv("lightcast_job_postings.csv")

# Show Schema and Sample Data
df.printSchema()
df.show(5)

1 Salary Distribution by Employment Type

  • Identify salary trends across different employment types.
  • Filter the dataset
    • Remove records where salary is missing or zero.
  • Aggregate Data
    • Group by employment type and compute salary distribution.
  • Visualize results
    • Create a box plot where:
      • X-axis = EMPLOYMENT_TYPE_NAME
      • Y-axis = SALARY_FROM
    • Customize colors, fonts, and styles to avoid a 2.5-point deduction.
  • Explanation: Write two sentences about what the graph reveals.
# Filter Spark DataFrame to exclude missing or zero salary
filtered_df = df.filter((col("SALARY_FROM").isNotNull()) & (col("SALARY_FROM") > 0))

# Convert to Pandas for Plotly visualization
pdf = filtered_df.select("EMPLOYMENT_TYPE_NAME", "SALARY_FROM").toPandas()

# Create Box Plot with custom styling
fig = px.box(
    pdf,
    x="EMPLOYMENT_TYPE_NAME",
    y="SALARY_FROM",
    title="Salary Distribution by Employment Type",
    color_discrete_sequence=["#636EFA"]
)

# Customize layout
fig.update_layout(
    font=dict(family="Arial", size=14),
    title_font_size=18
)

# Show the plot
fig.show()

The box plot shows that full-time jobs (> 32 hours) generally offer higher starting salaries compared to part-time roles. However, there are several outliers in all employment types, indicating a wide range of salaries even within the same category.

2 Salary Distribution by Industry

  • Compare salary variations across industries.
  • Filter the dataset
    • Keep records where salary is greater than zero.
  • Aggregate Data
    • Group by NAICS industry codes.
  • Visualize results
    • Create a box plot where:
      • X-axis = NAICS2_NAME
      • Y-axis = SALARY_FROM
    • Customize colors, fonts, and styles.
  • Explanation: Write two sentences about what the graph reveals.
# Filter Spark DataFrame to exclude missing or zero salary

Industries such as Information and Finance and Insurance exhibit higher median starting salaries compared to others. Some sectors, like Administrative and Retail Trade, show lower salary ranges, reflecting roles with typically lower compensation.

4 Top 10 Job Titles by Count

  • Identify the most frequently posted job titles.
  • Aggregate Data
    • Count the occurrences of each job title (TITLE_NAME).
    • Select the top 10 most frequent titles.
  • Visualize results
    • Create a bar chart where:
      • X-axis = TITLE_NAME
      • Y-axis = Job Count
    • Apply custom colors and font styles.
  • Explanation: Write two sentences about what the graph reveals.
# Import required function
from pyspark.sql.functions import col, count

# Step 1: Group and count top 10 job titles
top_titles = df.groupBy("TITLE_NAME") \
               .agg(count("*").alias("Job_Count")) \
               .orderBy(col("Job_Count").desc()) \
               .limit(10)

# Step 2: Convert to Pandas for plotting
top_titles_pd = top_titles.toPandas()

# Step 3: Plot using Plotly
import plotly.express as px

fig = px.bar(
    top_titles_pd,
    x="TITLE_NAME",
    y="Job_Count",
    title="Top 10 Job Titles by Count",

The job title “Data Analysts” is the most frequently posted role, significantly surpassing all other positions in volume. This indicates a strong demand for data-driven roles, emphasizing the growing importance of analytics across industries.

5 Remote vs On-Site Job Postings

  • Compare the proportion of remote and on-site job postings.
  • Aggregate Data
    • Count job postings by remote type (REMOTE_TYPE_NAME).
  • Visualize results
    • Create a pie chart where:
      • Labels = REMOTE_TYPE_NAME
      • Values = Job Count
    • Apply custom colors and font styles.
  • Explanation: Write two sentences about what the graph reveals.
# Import required functions
from pyspark.sql.functions import col, count
import plotly.express as px

# Step 1: Group by REMOTE_TYPE_NAME and count job postings
remote_counts = df.groupBy("REMOTE_TYPE_NAME") \
                  .agg(count("*").alias("Job_Count"))

# Step 2: Convert to Pandas for plotting
remote_counts_pd = remote_counts.toPandas()

# Step 3: Create Pie Chart using Plotly
fig = px.pie(
    remote_counts_pd,
    names="REMOTE_TYPE_NAME",
    values="Job_Count",
    title="Remote vs On-Site Job Postings",
    color_discrete_sequence=px.colors.sequential.RdBu
)

# Step 4: Customize layout
fig.update_layout(
    font=dict(family="Arial", size=14),
    title_font_size=18
)

fig.show()

The majority of job postings (78%) do not specify a remote work type, while about 17% are explicitly labeled as remote. Hybrid and on-site roles make up a much smaller portion, suggesting that fully remote jobs are more commonly advertised than hybrid or strictly on-site roles.

6 Skill Demand Analysis by Industry (Stacked Bar Chart)

  • Identify which skills are most in demand in various industries.
  • Aggregate Data
    • Extract skills from job postings.
    • Count occurrences of skills grouped by NAICS industry codes.
  • Visualize results
    • Create a stacked bar chart where:
      • X-axis = Industry
      • Y-axis = Skill Count
      • Color = Skill
    • Apply custom colors and font styles.
  • Explanation: Write two sentences about what the graph reveals.
